4/8/21 Emu Creek to Exmouth

We spent a lazy morning by the river, enjoying our peaceful spot and knowing that we would not be able to check in to the caravan park in Exmouth until after 2 pm.

We headed out of the station by a different way, but soon joined up with the main highway, following along towards Exmouth.

There were drifts of prostrate mulla mulla which looks like white cotton balls have been dumped and overflowed down the road verges and on to the sides of the road.

We found the best bakery in Exmouth (the Ningaloo Bakehouse) and had delicious pepper pies and then followed them with delicious treats.

There were a couple of very brown corella in the mall. With feathers missing and very dirty they reminded me of old drunks sleeping rough.

Then we headed for the caravan park and put on a load of clothes to wash ASAP. These dried before dark.

The park has over 300 sites and is full. There is an amazing camp kitchen with ovens, hot plates, microwaves , toasters and kettles. There are even a row of bbqs and an emu that walks through the campground stealing food at about 3 pm each day!

There is also a TV in the camp kitchen so I can steal a glimpse at the Olympic every now and then.

We agreed to go across the road and up a bit to “Cadillacs” , an American country music themed bar and grill , where we hoped to catch up with Tarn Soden, who is currently working there. Unfortunately Tarn was on a night off, but the food was pretty good.
